SPLIT_Four weeks. All startup.
All execution. 24/7.
Split runs multiple cohorts every year. Selection is hyper-selective. Every selected startup receives ₹1.5 crore, moves to Kolkata, and builds under one roof until Demo Day.
The 1-Month Sprint.
One Roof, Zero Noise HYPER-SELECTIVE
The whole cohort lives and works under one roof in Kolkata. High-intensity, zero-bullshit execution. No commutes, no context switching, no networking events that go nowhere.
The Goal
You leave with two things: bulletproof high-margin unit economics, and unfair market leverage. Everything in the sprint is aimed at those two outcomes. 4 weeks, all startup, all execution, 24/7.
The Funding ₹1.5 CRORE
Every selected startup receives ₹1.5 crore. Not a promise, not a tranche schedule buried in legalese. Capital lands immediately upon acceptance, before the sprint begins.
Brainstorming & Office Hours
Raw 1 on 1 operational reviews with Split Partners. Your numbers on the table, your bottlenecks named out loud, and a decision made before you leave the room.
Leverage you cannot buy.
Deep-Tech & Innovation Labs
Prototyping, testing, and R&D through our institutional network: IITs, IIMs, IISER, AIIMS, and the RISE Foundation. Most founders spend years knocking on these doors. We hand you the keys.
Government & Non-Dilutive Grants
India runs serious non-dilutive grant programs that most founders never touch because the paperwork is a maze. We operate that machinery for you, so the cheque you keep is not the only capital you raise.
Cross-Country Footprint
Headquartered in Kolkata. Hubs launching next in Bengaluru, Delhi, and Kathmandu. Wherever your market is, the footprint follows.
The sprint ends in the market, not in a slideshow.
Breaking Into the Market
Before Demo Day you are pushed to land your first paying customers. Revenue is the only rehearsal that counts.
Demo Day THE FUNDRAISING CHESS MATCH
You present to hand-selected institutional investors, family offices, and VCs. We run the fundraising chess match beside you, engineering competition for your round so you close at a premium valuation.
Demo Day ends. We do not.
The Split Alumni Power Corridor
Every founder who goes through Split stays inside the network: operators, alumni, partners, and investors who pick up the phone because you are one of them.
The Credibility Moat SYSTEMS OVER HEROICS
Coming out of Split signals one thing to the market: this company runs on systems, not heroics. That reputation compounds long after the cohort ends. Our backing, our alumni network, and our commitment to your company do not expire.
